the coaster is looking great, and that is a good idea for

the loop.

[Westside7th]

That loop idea couold help a little but the loop needs to

be a bit bigger to do that I would suppose. If all else fails, put a lift on the second

tower.

[The Beast]

Ok! Finally an update!

But there is a problem

the train can't make it through the loop! <span

Hope you can help me out Please!

Well one rson is your incline for the list isnt right that

should give you some more speed.

[CostaKid]

Squirrel, what's wrong w/ the incline? You can

barely see it!!!

Beast-Try WD-40 on the axels.

[Westside7th]

Well, for one thing, your loop is very large. You could

try making the lift a lot taller to add more speed and also, make the transition from lift

to station a lot smoother and gradual. That will conseve more speed.
If none of

that works, add a second lift on the second incline.

[gforce]

Maybe make the loop 2 inches shorter

[The Beast]

Squirrel, I agrea CostaKid. Ther is plenty of higth.



CostaKid I

will try and add WD-40.

Westside7th

I will try and make the transition from the lift to the station smoother. The lift hill is 4

grey rods high so I do not think it is needded to to go any higher.

Gforce Not

much I can say. It is about half the higth of the lift hill.

Thank you

for the help, but I will take more advise in to consideration.

[Da Squriel]

make it 1 long grey rod longer that will give you the

speed your looking for trust me just try it, it will work.

[The Beast]

I am afrade not. The train does not even make half

way up the loop!
So I will have to try

and make the transition from the lift to the station smoother.

[CostaKid]

Well, dont shoot down squirrel right away. He might have

somthing there. Yes, it is a last resort but it might be what you are looking for. If you

dont want to change much, just add WD-40. It will make it go twice as fast

and not lose speed so easily. And make the turns as smooth and reinforced as

possible.

[Da Squriel]

ok beast you rong i'am right ok there is a sertent

scale that makes it go faster tyrant made one but i made it better ok 2 peeps together

make 6 feet so i dark grey rod is 6 feet and one long grey rod = 25.5 feet. bullet is 131

feet tall now iff you add a extra long grey rod and a green rod it will absoulitlw work

and wd-40.

[The Beast]

I will consider adding a grey and green rod. Although

I think I will try and make the transition from the lift to the station smoother. Like

Westside7th said.

Sory if I

have afended you Da Squriel.

Here is what

I will try and work on. VVV Once again like westsid7th said.

[Westside7th]

Good luck, I hope this works out because this is a

tough model to do seeing as the SS cars lose so much speed so quickly.

[CoasterGod310]

This roller coaster is looking

very nice beast Im surprised that it does not work, but I hope that it will and it

becomes a huge success!

[GregM]

You've already invested the time in building

what you have of this model, so I say go ahead and finish it. Don't let the time

you spent on it be for nothing.

[FunkMaestro]

I also agree with GreagM, you have something there,

that deserves to be finished.
